Skeptics in the Church of Data Getting Evangelical

Aaron Aldrich, Cage Data: "Coming from operations, the staples of monitoring seemed simple. The religious monitoring code went something like, "Thou shalt monitor processes. Thou shalt monitor memory. Thou shalt monitor disks." But is this religious decree relevant in a modern business? Operations has been devout in managing uptime while the industry cries, "We want innovation over uptime." How do we align with these business goals and shift from paying penance to gaining converts? With whom in our organizations can we partner to share the data gospel? How do we go from managing uptime to driving change? I'll explain how treating our traditions with skepticism and realigning with our businesses can move into the future of monitoring."
